I have this broken faucet and it seems to drip. . . On my heart. . . and when I open my mouth the echoes of emptiness paint the walls with sorrow in the room where we once laid and those naked shadows stood up from the floor in your heart a midlife storm echoed of love and lies I believed in your passion and twisted myself inside it gorged myself on you naked flesh and naked fears needed you like you wanted me to and filled your emptiness with my own but when those storm clouds cleared and you removed my hand from that heart I could see your body was a coat of razor's I walked outside hand's covered in blood washed them in the rain and only the stains are left to remind me that if I don't fix this broken faucet I just might drowned in a flood. . . Without you. . .
